My friend and I play on a private server with several other friends and have divided into two nations. We're sitting in the middle of a cold war right now because there isn't too terribly much we can do to each other. Burning buildings down stopped when we started building with cobble, and the insane amount of effort needed to stockpile tnt makes tnt cannons out of the question. Is there a mod out there that has things like flying machines (dirigibles preferably) that move in real time (like boats) and cannons or turrets that can fire?
We shall see. I'm not going to start cheating everything in. Just a few things here or there we can't get with creatures off. As for the chainmail, if it works with the roleplay, then I have no problem with it.
I'm going to be a person living in the wood with a bow and arrow.
It's not a elf so don't worry.
Grizzled woodsman type eh? I like it. I'll have to maybe cheat you in some string so you can make your bow though... What with no monsters on, at least for the beginning.
I'm working at it. Currently I give guitar lessons at 10 bucks an hour, so it's slow going on the server box. The one I was going to use is completely fried. I salvaged what I could and I'm going to frankenstein something to run the server on. My chief concern is having something that can stay up 100% of the time with little maintenance. This costs money, and with speculation about internet in Canada being charged by use, not by flat rate, I'll need a cash reserve stored up to pay for it's upkeep.
If people want to help, I don't want to take donations because of 2 things:
1) If I can't manage to get a server up, I'd have to jump through hoops to return the cash and
2) I don't want to start doling out special treatment and VIP statuses like lots of other servers.
To be most helpful to me, I need suggestions for mods and wrappers.
Remember, this is a non-fantasy medieval RP server. Anything from server hosting software like Bukkit to game mods that put in NPCs or custom items. Place your suggestions here please (free stuff only, I'm having a hard time just buying a server, let alone paying for software)
Alright, I've hit a snag on the server. It's not dead, it's just in a comatose and unlikely to wake up for a few weeks.
It was hit two-fold. You see, in my house, my router is in the kitchen where the main desktop is. We have several laptops and computers throughout the house, and so we have an N-type wireless router. Unfortunately, I am unable to run the server off this network because it will eat my bandwidth alive for the rest of the wireless internet in the house.
As well, I was tinkering with the server host to be computer and it did not take it well. I am not sure exactly what parts I'll need to replace, but the tally so far is a power supply, a mother board, and possibly a graphics card (protip: make sure, even if the computer is powered down, unplug it from the wall before digging around in it)
I am in the process of making a new server on a computer I own. I want to make a 24/7 dedicated server for either Minecraft or Gmod, however, I cannot host both on the same machine and have them run properly.
I am here asking about general interest in this server idea. All I want is a post from you indicating you would be interested in a server with the following ideas and settings.
The server would be capped at around 15-20 people (and no waits, because I will only whitelist as many people as the cap) As I just alluded to, it will be whitelisted, and I will be using the banhammer without mercy on griefers (not an instaban mind you, just a ban on obvious griefers)
It will be an in-character roleplaying server set on the frontier of a large kingdom. The main focus will be setting up the village, after which exploration and development into a town or city would be the goal. I will play the role of the village magistrate, as well as the server administrator outside of character confines. I have three close personal friends who will be moderators and fill the jobs of village planner and two regular citizens.
This server is not a sure thing set in stone, and the player cap may change depending on how much RAM I can allot to Minecraft (It's on a clunky version of Vista that likes to eat RAM, I'll have to do some registry optimizing)
Things that will not change should this server come into play:
In-Character playing (i.e. the baker bakes, the miner mines and the lumberjack... jacks lumber, as well, chat not contained in double parentheses or something similar ((like this)) or [this] or -this- will be in character)
It will be village development oriented
I will strive to keep it as a pleasant, friendly place devoid of rudeness, racism and vulgarity.
So, in a non committing post, tell me if you would be interested on playing on a server like this if/when it is off the ground.
Hey, Cor, I have one or two of those double half blocks in my inventory. I didn't hack them in, they appeared when I was building columns with half blocks. If they are bad, I will incinerate them immediately.
^ yea, just realized my TeamSpeak had no password. I bring my laptop to school and usually play MC with friends. Could be one of em. But they make it up to make me look bad. >_>
None of our moderators are making up anything to make you look bad. Honestly, I still don't see how you thing you matter enough to anyone on our server to have us make stuff up about you.
^ Malice just wants people she doesn't like to get banned. Also that is a fake chatlog too. You guys like making up ******** about me. :sleep.gif:
Honestly. I'm gone and you still do it. :tongue.gif:
It is not a fake chatlog. Do you honestly think you are important enough to anyone here to makes stuff up about you? If you did not do any of this, I would recommend changing your account password and checking out who could be using it, because whether or not you did it, it happened.
Well we're done with the server. The mods don't help us when our area is getting ransacked and even when I get upset I'm told to calm down even though someone ruined my area. It's hilarious how others can complain but when I do I told to shut up. We're done, goodbye.
Oh and by the way it's ******** how we weren't made mods even though we were loyal to the server, helped newbies when asked WHEN ITS NOT EVEN OUR JOB and helped the mods with griefers without being asked. We were there for this server and we were not allowed to put more effort by helping protect it.
Enjoy yourselves we're off to find a server that isn't filled with lag and hypocrites.
You leave out the part where the accidental perpetrators offered to fix what they had done and even give you extra sand they had found elsewhere as reparation.
You also left out the part where you were constantly spouting "fuk this fuk that" (Not a filter dodge, more half verbatim transcript for you forum mods"
You also left out the part where you told them to leave and swore at them as they tried to fix the damage.
I sent Sinn a message with what all went down, with names. I hope this gets dealt with accordingly.
EDIT: Just read the part about you being ticked about not being a mod. This would be why. You blow things massively out of proportions and take things waaaay too seriously.
I doubt Navineous griefed. And frankly, you all need to chill the **** out. I mean, making false claims just to get someone banned? That's some serious ********.
No, my friend, I believe it is you that needs to chill. I know the moderators on this server, they are not the kind of people to make these things up.
While I don't always agree with Mal, and sometimes she can come across as an agressor, it takes some effort to get her that riled up. I do not believe this server is using a global banlist, so he is just banned from a server he causes problems on.
I suggest in the future, before bunching your briefs up, you take a minute to find out EVERYONE's side throughly.

So, the server may take a while longer.
